    Condolences. It will be tough on that driver. As the passenger was probably some one the driver may have had close to their heart. The worst loss one can ever have.

    Sad. But another one where the drivers not paying attention to his driving coming up to stopped traffic like that.

    In a 2020 Volvo too, guess all those safety features didn’t work as good as common sense and paying attention.

    I don’t know what it is on that stretch of Monroe. I’ve seen a rolled truck a couple times near the old mill haven exit, Russell sage now. Weird.

    There is nothing in that stretch of road except interstate. The Rayville exit is 138. There is a Pilot there.
    Start is at exit 132. The next exit is Milhaven... exit 124. Nothing but cotton fields & woodland mostly in that area. No exits, no houses, no business' etc.... just interstate... 2 lanes in each direction.
    The 1st exit in Monroe city limits is exit 120. That is at the mall. So it was about 10 miles east of Monroe.
